Hickory North Carolina Real Estate for Sale

The Hickory - Metro region is situated in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains, in the Piedmont section of North Carolina. The Blue Ridge range extends to the North, West, and South of Catawba County, protecting our area from extreme temperatures in winter and summer. The region enjoys a year-round climate that is unexcelled anywhere, free from the rigors of the northern winters and extreme heat of summers farther south, as well as being shielded from the fierce storms of the middle western plains.

The city of Hickory is located in the northwestern part of Catawba County at the point where Burke, Caldwell, and Catawba Counties meet, adjacent to the 4,100 acres Lake Hickory. See the area map for more information.
